Callous Boss and Awkward Wife
Chapter 69: Invite Humiliation

Proofread by Peter Gong

After a seemingly calm night, it's a brand new day. Ko Chen's condition has finally stabilized after a whole night's rescue, but it is impossible for him to work again according to his current situation, and he must have a good rest at home for more than three days. Ko Chen immediately disagrees when he hears that. The sun shines and clouds hang in the blue sky. He is struggling to get up from the bed and explains with a very good reason, "The company is in trouble now. It can't get over the trouble without me."

Duan Qingfeng doesn't listen to him at all and pushes him back to the bed. Ko Chen is weak for this illness, and he didn't eat any food yesterday, so he is no match for Duan Qingfeng in strength, and falls back to bed. His shoulders are held by Duan Qingfeng, and Ko Chen's anger surges up immediately. A common person must be scared by his sharp sight, but unfortunately, he is Duan Qingfeng, and his anger doesn't work.

"I'm your doctor in charge and I must be responsible for your condition. I said you have to rest for three days exactly." Saying firmly, Duan Qingfeng stares back with the same sight, and there is no room for concession. They have been stalemated for a while. At last, Ko Chen is defeated. He sighs a little, takes back his eyes and avoids the sight of Duan Qingfeng. He says calmly, "I am clear about my condition."

Having been a friend with Ko Chen for so many years, Duan Qingfeng knows him better than anyone else. He wants to live than anyone else. It is because his desire for survival is so strong that he has become what he is today after a series of disappointments. Duan Qingfeng stands in front of the bed and looks at the man with a complex emotion. He is famous as "International Great Doctor"and he has solved countless miscellaneous diseases, but he only can't cure the disease of his best friend.

Duan Qingfeng enjoins Ko Chen a few more words. Although Ko doesn't respond, Duan makes clear all the points for attention. He comes out of the room, and meets Uncle Zhang who is waiting at the door. Uncle Zhang comes up as soon as he sees him. "Is Mr. Ko OK?" Holding his hands on the chest, Uncle Zhang is nervous. If Mr. Ko really has unexpected misfortunes, how can he confront the old master and madam after death.

Duan Qingfeng takes a look at the room, gently closes the door, and signals Uncle Zhang to follow him as far as the end of the corridor. "His condition is not good." Duan Qingfeng looks serious. On hearing this, Uncle Zhang is scared to frown in fright and hurries to ask what to do. Duan Qingfeng shakes his head, "The most serious problem of his disease is that he can't take drugs, so I have been taking conservative treatments for him. And I'm still studying the radical cure, and it still takes time. During this period, you must urge him to keep his mood stable, and he can't relapse."

Uncle Zhang nods in succession. They look at each other helplessly and sigh at the same time. It's easier said than done, according to Ko Chen's stubborn temper, it's hard and even impossible to let him rest at home for three days. Duan Qingfeng ponders for a moment and suddenly makes a ring of fingers, "he cares about Yu Fei, doesn't he? Uncle Zhang, You can take her as an excuse, as long as he hears things related to her, he will never sit back." Thinking for a while, Uncle Zhang reckons it's feasible, "well, I'll do that." On finishing words, Uncle Zhang inadvertently catches a glimpse of Yu Yu sneaking around near the stairway. She wants to go to Ko Chen's room, which shocks Uncle Zhang who hastens to stop her. Yu Yu has already put her hand on the doorknob when she is stopped and for that she is embarrassed and doesn't want to withdraw her hand. Uncle Zhang orders: "let go." Uncle Zhang used to be gentle with Yu Yu, but even if he is a nice man, he can't stand her disturbing Ko Chen in succession. Therefore, he just reminds her coldly, "Mr. Ko is resting now. What's the matter with you?" It is obviously to drive her away, which makes Yu Yu lose face. In her mind, although Uncle Zhang has always been close to Ko Chen, he is just a servant. She is going to be the wife of Ko Chen, so she thinks Uncle Zhang can do nothing about her.

"I want to see Chen. Should I ask for your permission?" Yu Yu says arrogantly and increases her strength. The door is suddenly opened from inside when she is on the point of opening it, and Ko Chen comes out fretfully. Actually, he tries to sleep after Duan Qingfeng leaves, however, there are so many things weighing on his mind that he feels unable to sleep. Then he hears the voice of Yu Yu and Uncle Zhang which is not clear but they seem to be arguing outside the door. Therefore, he just gets up to have a look.

"What are you doing?" His voice is much smaller than usual with a drawn face. However, Yu Yu is wondering about other things, and doesn't notice that he looks rather different. Her fingers are still on the doorknob. Ko Chen looks down and glances at Yu Yu, and she seems to get a shock and quickly takes back her hand. "No, I ... I didn't... " Yu Yu stammers to explain, but says nothing.

Ko Chen's expression gets more and more serious, which scares Yu Yu to lower her head. He doesn't get an answer and doesn't want to let Yu Yu off easily, so he says again, "I'm asking you." His tone is very strict, which makes Yu Yu shudder. Her eyes turn red, and she looks very poor. However, it has no effect on Ko Chen, and the expression on his face has not changed at all.

The atmosphere falls into a stalemate, and Uncle Zhang is quiet beside. It seems that Yu Yu can't stand the repression and finally cries. The voice of sobbing echoes in the corridor. Her crying directly ignites Ko Chen's anger, and he shouts, "go back to your room. Don't come here without my permission!" Yu Yu, with tears in eyes, looks up at Ko Chen with disbelief. Although Ko Chen sneered at her before, and even scolded her, he has never been like this, even in front of outsiders. She bursts into tears, running back to her room. Witnessing Yu Yu disappear in sight, the straight man immediately collapses and leans on the door, panting ceaselessly. Duan Qingfeng, who has been standing at the back watching the play, comes up and helps Ko Chen to return to the bed. He persuades sincerely, "I've told you that you can't get angry. Why don't you listen to me?" After saying that, they both laugh.
